The Ultimate Christmas Cocktail Series: Prancer’s Pomtini

One of the best parts of the holiday season is a delicious holiday cocktail. Whether you are hosting a party or watching a Christmas movie on the couch. This Prancer’s Pomtini is a tasty Christmas cocktail that is not only beautiful but super tasty!

You will need some basic cocktail equipment, if you do not have any, here is a great option (also a great gift):

Ingredients:

2 oz vodka

2 oz pomegranate juice

Pomegranate seeds

1 oz Simple syrup (if desired)

Lime

1/4 cup Sugar

Steps:

1. Place martini glass in freezer (a chilled glass is a must)
2. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add vodka, pomegranate juice (I used a pomegranate cherry for a tart taste), simple syrup, and a squeeze of lime
3. Place shaker lid on and shake well until the whole vessel freezes up (really give it a good shake)
4. Put sugar on a plate or in a bowl
5. Cut a lime wedge and cut the wedge down the middle. On the edge of the martini glass run the lime around half the glass. Dip the lime-soaked edge into the sugar. (Tip – if you are making someone a cocktail always rim half the glass if you don’t know their preference for a rim)
6. Pour cocktail from the shaker into glass
7. Garnish with lime wedge
8. Enjoy!
